You’re All Washed Up, Kitty!

Since it’s almost Halloween, I’ll put on my lifelike latex Bob Saget mask to introduce this compilation of cats splashing in water, some of which you’ve seen before. The music is OK, although “Yakkity Sax” would be better. But then, when wouldn’t it?

These are just freaking awesome. The one with the glass of water kills me. “MY water! MINE!”
My brother and his wife used to have a cat, Mattie, who would jump off the dock and swim after their boat as they took off.

OMG (as in “Oh My Goodness”) NOMTOM, how amazing. How incredibly funny. There are far too many great clips to comment on, but I was amazed at the kitty that looked as though it was skipping across the surface of the water.

And all cats are supposed to hate water? Another myth watered down. Such a great video. The one of the cat demanding his glass back and the toddler trying to toss the cat in and falling in instead were hilarious. I would have been worried tho for the toddler in the bath tub pulling the cat into the water, He could have been scratched.
Another song? How about Yakkity Katz, The original was the first album I ever bought, Waaaaaay back. Anytime I see someone with a saxaphone I ask if they can play it, Very few can.

Difficult task, but if I had to choose a favourite, I would go with the white kitten who oozed over the bathrub rim and then made a swifter return journey.
The toddler’s all “Whaa? It’s a nice bathie!”

My seventh grade history book had a picture of an Egyptian tomb painting that showed a cat retrieving ducks. I had a hard time believing that until I saw that kitty streaking across the duck pond like it was nothing.

And maybe I’m old fashioned, but I really think parents should teach their children to respect animals. Certainly, those toddlers in the videos are old enough to learn the rudiments of “No, kitties don’t like water, be nice to the kitty.”

True Tales Time.
“Once upon a time”, my dad had some drink in his hand that included gin.
I asked him what it tasted like, he handed it to me. ENTIRELY PROMISE that I
no more than TOUCHED the very smallest tip of my tongue toward the stuff.
Was still gagging ten minutes later. GAH.

I saw a cat do that once. It was sitting at the canal when another cat snuck up on it and attacked it. It fell in, went *boing boing boing* and managed to scramble back out of the canal with the other cat in hot pursuit.

Well Auntie B, if you didn’t have the guts before trying the fried butter, you’d certainly be on the road towards the gut afterward.
And what exactly is a Yeller Meller? Something oxymoronic about that.

Love this! My uncle once had a cat named Beaches (they found him on the beach) who loved to take bubble baths. No kidding. Every time my aunt would take a bath Beaches would eventually join her. He also played dead. He was an awesome kitty.
